How To:

Use brush and turquoise paint and outline the shape of a simple butterfly across the entire face of your kid. Make nose as the body of the butterfly. Use a mirror to view.

Dip the brush in water and then use dark blue paint to outline the design in dark blue color.

Paint the wings of the butterfly in normal blue color.

Add swirls and antennae in every corner of the wings of the butterfly.

Paint dark blue spots on either side of the butterfly wings’ swirls.

Add a touch of silver glitter gel over the body of the butterfly and on the wings.

A Word Of Caution:

Avoid using oil-based face paints to draw butterfly face designs since oil-based paints are hard to remove, tend to smear a lot, and clog the pores. Use fabric based glitter that is non-toxic in nature to protect kid’s skin from damage.
